Exodus 28:2
In the old testament the priests of God were arrayed in robes that were glorious and beautiful.
The purpose of these unique robes was to make them (priests) distinct from the other children of Israel.
The priestly garment was something of a glorious uniform priests wore which reveals they are set apart, called and distinguished for God's service.
In Christ Jesus we are spiritual priests.
1 Peter 2:9
So there is a garment of glory in the spirit realm that shows who those in Christ Jesus are.
God is a God of uniqueness and variety.
God is a God who sets apart and distinguishes.
The scriptures is full of evidence of this.
He distinguishes between people, nations, siblings, miracles and achievements.
In Jacob's family, God put a distinction upon Joseph among Jacob's children.
This distinction was further evidenced by the coat/garment of many colors Jacob gave to Joseph who is his favorite son.
Joseph's gift- the coat/garment of many colors represents the favor, call, mantle, anointing, royalty, and manifold wisdom of God upon Joseph's life.
Twice we see the garment/robe of Joseph taken from him in the Bible account.
Each time Joseph's robe/garment was taken from him something unfortunate happened to him.
The first time he had his robe taken away from him (by his brothers) he ended up in a pit and was sold to slavery.
Genesis 37:23,24
The second time Joseph lost a robe he ended up in prison unfairly.
Genesis 39:12-21
Prior to his loosing his robe on two occasions, on each occasion he was doing well.
Before his brothers stripped him of his multicolored robe which was a gift from his father, he was enjoying his father's favor and love.
Before Joseph left his robe in Mrs Potiphar's hand he was enjoying favor and success with Potiphar his boss.
There seems to be a link between the robes of Joseph and his well being.
What happened to Joseph each time he lost his robe was an attack.
The Bible records that the archers shot at Joseph.
We don't see any men with bow and arrows shoot at Joseph in the scriptures.
Genesis 49:22,23
The archers who shot at Joseph were spiritual archers.
Their attacks caused the tragedies and pain in Joseph's life.
The attack of these archers resulted in physical attacks and loss.
The attacks of these archers made Joseph loose his garments.
When your garment is lost your nakedness is exposed.
When you experience attempts from men to expose you, disgrace you, and cause loss in your life, just know you are under the attack of spiritual archers.
Psalm 91:5
They couldn't stop Joseph, so they will not be able to stop you too.
When your garment is lost your nakedness is exposed.
What happened to Joseph in the natural represents what is happening to many people in the spiritual realm.
As Joseph lost his garments physically, the enemy has stolen the garments of many people spiritually.
John 10:10
Just as Joseph had a coat of many colors, you also have a garment of glory that God has given you.
Isaiah 61:10
This garment is needed for the fulfillment of your destiny.
Your garment of glory is needed for your forward movement and progress in life.
Your garment of glory is necessary to attract the right things and people into your life.
Your garment of glory brings honor, dignity, and lifting into your life.
Garments have spiritual representations in the Bible:
1.The robe of righteousness.
2.The garment of Jesus Christ that centurion soldiers cast lots for.
3.The garment of Jesus Christ that the woman with the issue of blood touched the helm of and received her wholeness.
4.God made garments for Adam and Eve from animal skin as an improvisation after they lost their garment of glory.
5.Adam and Eve didn't know what nakedness was until they lost the garments of glory that covered them after their disobedience.
6.The garment of praise
7.Garments of salvation
8.Angels are described as having white garments on etc
